The effectiveness of interventions to reduce neurological injuries in rugby union: a systematic review.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although in the developed world the intracranial pressure (ICP) monitor is considered the standard of care for patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), its usefulness to direct treatment decisions has never been tested rigorously. OBJECTIVE:The primary focus was to conduct a high-quality, randomiz...

abstract：OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE:Vertebrobasilar insufficiency resulting from disease of the subclavian artery is well recognized. Usually, this occurs as the "subclavian steal" syndrome in the context of chronic subclavian stenosis and is consequently well tolerated because of collateralization.
